The problem in Karnataka was a ticking time bomb - the establishment just ignored the ticks ! None of these cases of theft n vandalism were properly investigated @Tejasvi_Surya@MalavikaBJP@sanjeevsanyal@gchikermane
The raids in Chennai linked to #KapoorLoot suppliers in 2016 and later - nothing was followed up
Direct evidence of rampant idol theft - seized in USA as part of #Kapoorloot since 2012. No action to recover
A plethora of news articles , auctions with nil provenance or provenance clearly post the 1970 UN Statute ! you can wakeup someone who is sleeping but ...
How many more should we loose before the establishment wakes up n ackn that yes... we have a problem
Kikkeri - Yes, no one stole these !! maybe they fell down by themselves - all 6 of them n then vanished

Requests for return of cultural objects that were not looted, or which originated from countries that were not Dutch colonies are to be accepted if they are of special cultural, historical, or religious interest to the country of origin. #LeidenGrants#Anaimanglam
requests for restitution of objects from non-former Dutch colonies must be accompanied by evidence or proof that the object is more appropriately kept in the requesting land than in Holland on religious or cultural ground
